Patina Terms of Service

(We hate long incomprehensible legal agreements but our lawyers insist that they are necessary to protect us. To help decipher look out for our succinct real-world explanation in each section)

1. Your Acceptance

(We really want you to use Patina, but have a couple of things that you need to agree to)

Welcome to the Terms of Service for the Patina website, mobile application and any associated services. This is an agreement (“Agreement”) between, Joslyn, Ltd(“Patina"), the owner and operator of www.getpatina.com (the “Site ”), the Patina App (“App”) and any Patina services ( “Service(s)”) and you (“you”, “your” or “user(s)”), a user of the Site, App, and Service.

Throughout this Agreement, the words “Patina,” “us,” “we,” and “our,” refer to our company, Joslyn, Ltd and our Site, App, or any Services, as is appropriate in the context of the use of the words. Your ability to submit any information to us shall be referred to as “Content.”

By agreeing to use our App or our Site you agree to these Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy. We may amend our Terms of Service or Privacy Policy and may notify you when we do so.

If you do not agree to the Terms of Service or the Privacy Policy please cease using our App, Site and Service immediately. Users of our Service must be 13 or above. If you are under the age of 13 please stop using our Site and Service immediately.

2. Patina Description of Service

Patina is a mobile application that allows users to create digital car and vehicle records, by submitting photos or documents through our App. You may then keep or share such documents using our App or Service.

3. User Accounts

4. Use of Patina

(We have some conditions, we think they are reasonable; don’t steal anything, don’t attempt to hack us or try to take us down, don’t pretend to be somebody else, don’t use us for criminal activities and please only upload content that you have rights to. If you do any of this then we will probably at the very least have to ask you to leave)

You agree not to access, copy, or otherwise use Patina, including our intellectual property and trademarks, except as authorised by these Terms of Service or as otherwise authorised in writing by Patina. You agree not to use Patina to:

You will not copy, distribute or disclose any part of the Site or the Service in any medium, including without limitation by any automated or non-automated “scraping”;

You will not use any automated system, including without limitation “robots,” “spiders,” “offline readers,” etc., to access the Site or the Service in a manner that sends more request messages to Patina servers than a human can reasonably produce in the same period of time by using a conventional on-line web browser (except that Patina grants the operators of public search engines revocable permission to use spiders to copy materials from the publicly available searchable indices of the materials, not caches or archives of such materials);

You will not attempt to interfere with, compromise the system integrity or security, or decipher any transmissions to or from the servers running the Site, App, or Service;

You will not upload any Content to our Site or App that includes any third party intellectual property unless you have permission from the owner to use it in the specific manner that you used it;

Generally, we will provide an explanation for any suspension or termination of your use of any of our Services, but Patina reserves the right to suspend or terminate any account at any time without notice or explanation.

5. Modification of App

(We will frequently change the app, usually it’s to make it even better)

We reserve the right to alter, update, or remove our App from your system at any time, or demand that you do so. We may conduct such modifications to our App for security reasons, intellectual property or other legal reasons, or various other reasons at our discretion, and we are not required to explain such modifications. For example, we may provide updates to fix security flaws, or respond to legal demands. Please note that this is a non-binding illustration of how we might exercise our rights under this section, and nothing in this section obligates us to take measures to update the App for security, legal or other purposes.

6. App and Site Availability

(As much as we would like to, we cannot guarantee availability – we can just promise to do our very very best!)

We do not guarantee that the App or Site will always be available, work, or be accessible at any particular time. Only users who are eligible to use our App may do so. We reserve the right to terminate access for anyone. We cannot guarantee that the App will work as advertised, or that it will give you the desired results.

7. Compliance With All Laws and Regulations

(If somehow you manage to break some laws when using Patina then you’re on your own)

Patina is not responsible for your violation of any laws while using our Site, App, and Service. Users must comply with all local, state, or federal laws regarding your use of our Site and Service. Our App and Service is void where prohibited. We are not responsible for the posting of any Content.

8. Intellectual Property Rights

(We’ve spent many long days and nights building Patina and are proud of what we have built – please don’t steal it!)

The design of the Patina Service along with Patina created text, templates, scripts, graphics, interactive features and the trademarks, service marks and logos contained therein ("Marks"), are owned by or licensed to Patina, subject to copyright and other intellectual property rights under UK and foreign laws and international conventions. Patina reserves all rights not expressly granted in and to the Service and the Site. You agree to not engage in the use, copying, or distribution anything contained within the Site or Service unless we have given express written permission.

9. Our Copyright

(Please use Patina to share other public content through the platform but don’t just take it for your own purposes)

Users are allowed and share our Content and other users’ Content through the functionality of our Site, App, and Service. However, you agree not to otherwise copy, distribute, display, disseminate, or reproduce any of the information on our Service without our prior written permission. This includes, but is not limited to, a prohibition on aggregating, streaming, copying, or otherwise reproducing any Content found on Patina. Your copying not only has the potential to affect certain copyrights that we may hold in the arrangement of our data and the layout of our Site or App, but may also infringe on a third party’s copyright. You agree that this section limits your rights more than the simple application of intellectual property law would, and constitutes a contractual obligation binding to you beyond the applicable intellectual property laws.

10. Your Copyright

(This is the really important one! Any content and media you submit is owned by you. Any content that you submit and make public we have to state a lot of legal jargon that sounds like we could be trying to steal it. We’re not, we promise, but we have a very simple challenge - from time to time we use screenshots and videos of the app in our advertising and that may contain your public images, therefore we need the rights to be able to take screenshots of our own platform!)

Any content submitted by you will be owned by you. However, you agree to grant Patina and its affiliates, representatives and assigns a non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, world-wide, universal, transferable license to display, publicly perform, distribute, store, broadcast, transmit, reproduce, modify, prepare derivative works and otherwise use and reuse all or part of your public content and anything we may make with your content through Patina or any other medium currently invented or invented in the future. We reserve the right to display advertisements and to use your public content to advertise and promote Patina.

11. Access to Our Service and Limited License

(If you agree with our terms then we grant you a license to use Patina)

Our Site and Service are provided “as-is”. We may at our discretion and without notice to you change, modify, interrupt or terminate our Site, App and Service. You agree that our Service may not always be error free, continuous or undisrupted. We may at our discretion modify, update, delete, disable or otherwise discontinue our Service.

We grant you a revocable, non-exclusive, personal, license to access our Site and to use any of our Services. This license grant is subject to compliance with our Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy. We also reserve the right to terminate your access to Patina at any time without explanation. Any failure by us to terminate your access does not act as a waiver of your conduct.

You agree not to distribute any Content found on our Site and Service without our prior written authorisation, unless such distribution is through functionality offered by our Service. You are expressly forbidden to make money off of our Site or Service unless you have received prior written permission from us. You agree not to access Content through any technology or means other than through our Site or Service or otherwise authorised by us.

12. Representations and Warranties

(NOT SURE WHY ARE WE SHOUTING! WE WILL ALWAYS TRY OUR BEST, BUT IN THE EVENT THAT ANYTHING GOES WRONG THEN PLEASE DO NOT HOLD US REPSONSIBLE)

The service, including, without limitation, the content, is provided in a "as is", "as available" and "with all faults" basis. To the fullest extent permissible by law, neither Joslyn Ltd nor any of their employees, managers, officers or agents make any representations or warranties or endorsements of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, as to: (A) the service; (B) any user content; (C) Our content; or (D) security associated with the transmission of information to Patina or via the service. In addition, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, title, custom, trade, quite enjoyment, system integration and freedom from computer virus.

Patina does not represent or warrant that the service will be error-free or uninterrupted; that defects will be corrected; or that the service or the server that makes the service available is free from any harmful components, including, without limitation, viruses. Patina does not make any representations or warranties that the information (including any instructions) on the service is accurate, complete, or useful. You acknowledge that your use of the service is at your sole risk. Patina does not warrant that your use of the service is lawful in any particular jurisdiction, and Patina specifically disclaims any such warranties. Some jurisdictions limit or do not allow the disclaimer of implied or other warranties so the above disclaimer may not apply to you to the extent such jurisdiction's law is applicable to you and this agreement. By accessing or using the service you represent and warrant that your activities are lawful in every jurisdiction where you access or use the service. Patina does not endorse any content and specifically disclaims any responsibility or liability to any person or entity for any loss, damage (whether actual, consequential, punitive or otherwise), injury, claim, liability or other cause of any kind or character based upon or resulting from any content found on our through Patina.

13. Limitation of Liability

(STILL SHOUTING!)

In no event shall PJosltn Ltd, its officers, directions, employees, or agents, be liable to you for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages whatsoever resulting from (I) your use or inability to use the app, website or our services errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies of content, (II) any personal injury or property damage, of any nature whatsoever, resulting from your access to and use of our site, app, or service, (III) any interruption, misinformation, incomplete information, or cessation of transmission to or from our app to you, (IV) any bugs, viruses, trojan horses, or the like, which may be transmitted to or through our site by any third party, (V) any failure of any third party information listed on our site and service, including any failures or disruptions whether intentional or unintentional or (VI) any errors or omissions in our site or service for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of your use of our site or service, whether based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory, and whether or not the company is advised of the possibility of such damages. The foregoing limitation of liability shall apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction.

For Jurisdictions that do not allow us to limit our liability: Notwithstanding any provision of these Terms, if your jurisdiction has provisions specific to waiver or liability that conflict with the above then our liability is limited to the smallest extent possible by law. Specifically, in those jurisdictions not allowed, we do not disclaim liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by its negligence or that of any of its officers, employees or agents; or (b) fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any liability which it is not lawful to exclude either now or in the future.

If you are a resident of a jurisdiction that requires a specific statement regarding release then the following applies. For example, California residents must, as a condition of this agreement, waive the applicability of California Civil Code SECTION 1542, which states, “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor Does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favour at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor." You hereby waive this section of the California Civil Code. You hereby waive any similar provision in law, regulation, or code that has the same intent or effect as the aforementioned release. Your ability to use our app is contingent on your agreement with this and all other sections of this agreement. You agree our total liability to you is not more than 100 UK pounds or the total amount you spent while using our site, app, and service within the last six months, whichever is greater. Nothing in this Agreement limits the liability of Patina and its directors, employees, agents, partners, suppliers or content providers for: (i) death or personal injury caused by negligence; (ii) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (iii) any breach of the obligations implied by section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982; or (iv) any other matter in respect of which it is not permissible by law to exclude or limit liability.

If two or more provisions of this Agreement are deemed to conflict with each other’s operation, Patina shall have the sole right to elect which provision remains in force.

22. Non-Waiver

(We get to choose which bits of this agreement we apply when and we can change our mind)

We reserve all rights permitted to us under this Agreement as well as under the provisions of any applicable law.

If you wish to terminate this Agreement, you are solely responsible for following proper termination procedures. Simply delete or destroy the copy of the App that you have downloaded.
